I have a card with multiple columns similar to this:
ColumnA Column B Column C Column D
Red Red Red Red
Blue Blue Yellow Yellow
Green Green Green Brown
White
Purple
I need to create a custom filter (script) that search for all columns containing specified text
For example, if I search for Green (Column A, B and C shows they have the word, likewise searching for Brown, Only Column D will show.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Hi,
How did you create a card with multiple columns?
Seems like you'd have to create a merged column in Power Query with a delimiter as your search column. In the Power Query editor, ctrl + click the columns, go to the Add Column tab in the ribbon and select Merge Columns. Pick a delimiter and click OK.
Are you doing a Text search with a custom visual or are you planning to use a slicer?
